  • Read this article and follow the directions in the document. Save and email to ferrer01@southredford.netIf you DO NOT want to do this on the computer, come to the front desk for a hard copy that you can write on and complete that way. Or you can write the answers on lined paper. Make sure they are labeled well so it is clear what you are answering.

  • Write 1 script for a Media Violence play for K-8 students (you should plan on younger kids seeing this)

Media Violence Play Acting
Based on the notes on Media Violence (4 effects) you are now going to create a skit for elementary/middle school students.

  • Choose 1 out of the 4 effects
  • Write a detailed script showing the effects of media violence
    • Make sure the script is detailed enough for anyone to be able to get up and perform it
      • You will probably need to add instructions of props, costumes, and other things that are needed
      • Keep it entertaining
  • Scripts are written using Times New Roman, 14pt font in ALL CAPS
  • Each script must have a title
  • You may work with ONE other person on this. Make sure both names are on it
  • Email your final script when you are done

Example:

SETTING: BASEMENT IN AN AVERAGE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH A COUCH AND A TV.
TWO BOYS ARE PRESENT WEARING JEANS AND HOODIES.

BOY 1: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO TODAY?

BOY 2: I DON’T KNOW, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
